On his first day as general manager, Ruben Amaro Jr. said the team had spoken to the agents of Moyer and Eyre and would like to keep both players. (H/T Phillies.com)

As I’d said at the top, I was not expecting this situation, mostly because no one at any point during the season talking about Rudy possibly becoming a free agent after the regular season was over. With that said, although I hope the Phils can keep him in the fold. If they can’t, I wish Rudy luck if someone picks him up during the off-season. I also like the fact that Moyer and Eyre’s agents are being talked with. I hope the Phillies will soon be signing the two to new contracts. I also hope they’ll go after Tadahito Iguchi. Never can have too many good infielders.
